Design System Team/Resources

Welcome to our collection of helpful resources about the Wikimedia Design System, the Design System Team (DST), Codex, and front-end technology. These resources may be useful to you if you are onboarding, or just need a refresher.

This page is NOT for individual pieces without context (e.g., single Phabricator tasks, notes, discussion threads).

Please contribute to this page as you discover more!

🌠 = good overviews if you don't have time for all of it
